This was the first time that Michael was driving a car. So, he found it to be quite entertaining, despite having already experienced this sensation during the time of the simulation during the upgrade of the driving skill to the advanced level.
The simulation was the simulation, but right now, it was the real deal. He was doing it with his own hands and feet, not just some experience that had been injected into his mind.
At the same time, as he was driving the car, it almost felt as though he could do anything with the car.
It was as though the car was an extension of his own body, making it easy for him to be able to control it.
It was only at this moment that Michael finally came to understand just how powerful the advanced level driving skills were.
For a moment, Michael was almost overwhelmed by the impulse of driving the car at its full speed.
But, he was able to suppress this feeling, as he understood that he was still within the city, and there were traffic rules to be followed.
During the time that he was reading to obtain the driving skills, he had obviously gone through the traffic rules.
And during the time that he was gaining the skills, the traffic rules had been embedded in his mind, making it almost impossible for him to be able to forget them.
So, Michael drove at a moderate speed, just enjoying the feeling of driving. At the same time, he looked around, observing the city.
Good thing, the car had a full tank, he could move around as much as he wanted, before returning back to his apartment.
For this reason, Michael moved around with a peace of mind, he just enjoyed the scenery around the city.
And as he continued looking around, he was even more amazed by the prosperity of the city.
The stores along the roads, the good conditions of the roads and highways, the harmony of the pedestrians along the road, just everything was at its own level.
For the first time, Michael felt as though he had finally come to a city that belonged to free people.
Drenn city? That was a pit hole of gangsters, not a suitable place for someone to live. Each day, people lived with tension, afraid that they would end up losing something.
It was not just about losing property, they could also lose their lives, and the perpetrators would not be punished.
Having experienced life in a city that was mostly controlled by the gangsters, it was a completely different sensation in such a harmonious and prosperous city.
It was also at this point that Michael felt that he had made the right decision by coming here. At least, he would be able to acquire more skills and SP without being worried about being bothered.
Without even realizing it, he had already began heading to the outskirts of the city. All that Michael wanted to do was to enjoy himself by moving around the city, so, he did not really pay attention to where he was going to.
As he headed for the areas that had lesser traffic, he realized that there was more vegetation.
And finally, when he got to the road where he could not see any car around, he decided to finally test out the capabilities of the Koenigsegg Regera.
Vrroom! Vrroom!
Stepping on the accelerator, the car suddenly began accelerating. With the car having an acceleration of 0 to 60mph in just 2.8 seconds, it was quite terrifying.
Michael had only stepped on the gas for a little while, when he felt as though the car was already flying.
But with his current physical abilities, including the perception which was improved, he did not feel any pressure, despite driving the car at a speed of 150 mph.
According to the information that he had acquired from the system, it seemed that the maximum speed of this car was 251 mph.
Michael did not have any intention of driving the car at its full speed. After all, he was not really familiar with the roads around the city, and it was already a little risky to drive at a speed of about 150 mph.
Even though it was risky, Michael was confident that he would be able to react to any situation.
This was confidence brought about not only due to his advanced level driving skills, but his own physical capabilities as well.
'It is a pity that I cannot experience driving this car at its maximum speed. Otherwise, how awesome would that be?' Michael wondered to himself.
Despite what he was thinking about, Michael began using the navigation system of the car.
The Koenigsegg Regera included a GPS navigation system as part of its high-end infotainment. It came integrated with the touchscreen display, offering route guidance, maps, and connectivity features typical of modern luxury vehicles.
Since Michael was kind of unfamiliar with the roads around this city, he decided to use the navigation function, in order to find the roads that had the least traffic.
He wanted to enjoy the time out, to at least relax his mind. After all, he had been concentrating so much on reading that he had almost forgotten about enjoying life.
It seems, he would have to set aside at least a day a week so that he could relax a bit.
While he really wanted to obtain the SP and new skills, he was not willing to sacrifice everything for that. At least, he did not take himself as a slave of the system, so, he could as well schedule things as he wanted.
Additionally, at the moment, he really wasn't experiencing any kind of pressure. So, he could take things slowly.
As for being afraid that the system would disappear on the following day, Michael was not worried at all.
Even if the system really disappeared, would it take whatever he had already gotten?
And if it could take whatever he had already gotten by now, what was the use of working harder, to obtain more items, only for them to be taken back later on?
Was life like this not meant to be enjoyed? So, he would take things step by step, one at a time. If he needed to relax, he would do so. If he needed to earn the SP, he would do so.
In any case, he was already dedicated to his future, considering that he had already assigned 6 days a week to obtaining SP and skills, with only a single day to relax.
Using the GPS function of the car, Michael began navigating around the city, using only the roads that had less traffic.
Due to the low traffic, there were no traffic lights along the roads that he took. Additionally, he only encountered one or two cars once in a while, implying that the roads were rarely used.
Since that was the case, the condition of those roads was quite good, as they did not experience wear and tear, like the other frequently used roads.
About 2 hours after he had left the apartment, he received the notification on his phone.
Upon checking it out, he realized that it was a message from Adrian.
{I have already compiled all the information on Cyber Security and Information Assurance. I have sent them to your email.}
Upon receiving this message, Michael decided that it was enough fun. It was time for him to go back, and try pushing the Cyber Security and Information Assurance skills to the expert level.
He was quite curious about what would happen if he succeeded in pushing this skill to the expert level. Was there a possibility that he might be able to unlock another level beyond the expert level?
Since he was quite curious about this, he decided to head back. So, using the GPS function of the car, he located his apartment, and began driving there.
At a red light, Michael stopped the car, as he waited for the green light.
Vrroom!
While Michael was waiting for the traffic light, he suddenly heard the roaring of a car engine. From the sound, he could tell that it was definitely a high end car.
Looking at the side mirror of the car, he noticed that there was a McLaren P1 that was speeding over from behind.
In just a few seconds, it had already reached him, stopping next to him.
And in the next moment, the tinted windows of the car rolled down, exposing a young man's face, who was looking at the Koenigsegg curiously, excitement in his eyes.
"Hey! Are you willing to race with me?" The young man with medium-length blonde hair and gray eyes shouted at Michael.
Looking over, Michael could see that there was some kind of excitement in the eyes of the young man as he was looking at his car.
"Race?" Michael was caught completely off guard, as he had not anticipated that someone would just meet him for the first time, and ask them to race.
"What? You are driving a limited edition hyper car, and you cannot race? If you do not know how to race, how about this, sell that car to me." The young man responded, his expression suddenly turning slightly gloomy.
